scavenger

Posted by Robert Anderson On Thursday, November 3, 2011 0 comments

i scavenge for a piece of me
through shattered reveries
for love so that i may be free
come scavenge for my soul with me
from where you haunt my aching heart
to where i'll always die
then scavenge for a way to part
away these tears i cry
what way is there i'm meant to be
when they can't understand
i scavenge for that piece of me
throughout these foreign lands
and crawl with hands leading the way
in hope to find my eyes
and when i do i'll search for you
beneath your sordid guise

word for word

skinny-dip your soul with me
through the breath of life
that channels these lucid dreams

see us dance against
the bluish red skies as the sun
bids farewell until sweet life to come,
sweet life to come

feel me hold you ever closely
begging of your heart for an ounce of you
to touch, to taste, to catch the scent of,
then let me die in that blessedness
which remains as my ideal fantasy

how i have often believed that
through such tranquility
this dreamland will bequeath frivolous hues
so much so that twilight will lament
then swivel an existence
that only beauty could have conjured

even so i imagine with you
this could be our rise
into an eternity
only deep emotion could have ever
slathered

and oh, it still keeps on
that i yearningly love you,
and will love you always...
word for word

you are the sun, i am the moon

you are the sun, i am the moon, we'll never touch
we'll never know the beauty of a kiss
i'll never know what it may be to miss you much
for i have never mingled with your bliss
i search for you, you are the light deep in my heart
you light my path when i am lost, oh love
you are the sun, i am the moon, we'll never part
though we may share the heavens high above
it's in my nature to be far from your embrace
yet i still hope you hear what i convey
i often do what it may take to know your grace
and so i'll find my way to you one day
you are the sun, i am the moon, though this is true
i'll always be in love with only you

carry on (my weary one)

carry on my weary one
through all the tears you cry
for I do sense that you believe
all pain is just a lie
a thousand bonds of beauty weave
a thousands times you'll know
that only you can unravel
and only you can sow
reflected in your deepest dreams
are reasons you're so fond
of why your soul will still remain
there seemingly beyond
where you will search for what you've yearned
cause inside you still feel
so carry on my weary one
for only love conceals

unendowed

don't tempt your heart to shaded sky
to find a love that makes you  cry
just search inside for thoughts as sweet
and one that can make you  complete
to traverse through an ageless view
and by your life a dream as true
within your soul where truth can bare
says that someone out there  cares
for beauty's writ in all the stars
that your fate so near and  far
can reach out to a tender heart
though at times you fall  apart
so should you mourn throughout the night
take shelter through a dreamy  flight
and trust how sure-enough love is
to live and know a soul like his

The Enshrining of Xanadu

Photobucket
She crawled into her memories to leave her loneliness
For one who gave to her a passion she has never known
Alone she stood beyond the wide, wide world and dreamed obsessed
Within her mind and by a life of flesh and blood and bone
As kisses from the very breath of beauty in despair
Gave reason for her to embrace and cry her thoughts for him
For every hope within the whispers of a perfect prayer
So spiritually her confidence had seemingly un-dimmed
That road which gave the promise of an everlasting love
And never trembled nor eroded by what she once knew
Within the one who she had so persistently thought of
And so from twilight to each day she longed for Xanadu

keepsake

thought i fell through shades
of places i couldn't be found
alone i cried to the sky
for heaven to let me drown
as i walked the empty roads
into places no one would see me
I felt as though they'd never know
all the things that i was feeling
then someone gave me forever
and i cried for her honestly
like-minded with my weary heart
she swore we will always be
said I dreamed away in stories
of a love that was everafter
while she stole away my every tear
and gave me back my laughter
and oh, how i longed so much for her
she's an angel away from home
who whispered true that i belong
as a keepsake in her soul

never

there is no taking back
all my truest thoughts
behind doors i've hidden
and places you've walked
under streetlight alone
as clouds cry with thunder
rain washes away
our yesterdays forever
unknown to your soul
i cried out for help
maybe it was me
who caused you to wail
tears of longing
to save you from hurt
while i dying
by the hands of a murderer
you sensed i was different
and promised me your heart
afraid to lose control
i stepped from the dark
the embrace of loss
drew us together
and i will never leave you
never
